Informazioni sul libro
Chromosome P. is the latest stop of Caturegli Formica long way to search visual archetypes of the contemporary world and turn them into the subject of precious carpets, from Pirelli tyres to New York Stock Exchange listings, from DNA sequencing to the map of African villages. The themes depicted in their carpets have to do with certain macro-knots of occidental thinking: the environment and consumption of the territory, genetics and GMOs, catastrophes, chaos theory, archival storage and the mind, the chemical essence of life.
